V GOPALA KRISHNA MURTHY

Though every political party is corrupted in the view of people, many still feel BJP is less corrupted. But everybody feel that both Manmohan Singh and LK Advani are honest, that they have to continue as long as they live.

Now ‘Cash for Votes’ scam has finally hit the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and the Congress Chairperson, Sonia Gandhi. A great opportunity has come to opposition leader LK Advani to raise voice against the ruling party‘s propriety right to continue in the government. He also threatened the government to start a RATHA YATRA against corruption.

No doubt it does displease the very honest Prime Minister like Mr. Manmohan Singh. What Sonia Gandhi does, let us see?

In fact one it is very difficult to say who is clean and who is unclean amongst our politicians - including the CBI. What was BJP doing when it wanted to expose the UPA government by mastermining a sting operation, as did Tehalka during NDA rule? Then, the BJP had asked the Manmohan Singh to resign. But then people had full of assurance in Manmohan singh and Sonia Gandhi. People did not hear what BJP said. Because of that UPA had won with a better margin in 2009 general election.

In fact, everybody was surprised when the Samajwadi Party had come forward to offer its support during the ‘CONFIDENCE’ vote of UPA-1 a couple of years ago. Though the power broker Amar Singh could do something to ensure UPA's political existance, but that would not happen as Manmohan Singh was there. But now the real colors have come out. To keep power anybody can accept the help of a power broker though they know about the persons.

To tell people that they were rightly done during the CONFIDENCE vote, they constituted a single man committee with Kishore Chandra Dev, now union Minister. But his findings were not agreeable to opposition parties. Later, the case was given to the CBI for a full investigation.

The CBI has investigated for a couple of years and finally has come to an understanding that the former general secretary of Samajwadi Party had a hand, and has filed a charge sheet, later he was put in the jail. Along with him the former MPs of BJP Mr. Kulaste and Mr. Bhagora have been arrested, as they participated in the sting operation. Now, Lal Krishna Advani has dared to ask the government to arrest him as he knew it before.
